Home Care Assistance Of Des Moines: A Trusted Provider of In-home Care Throughout Des Moines, IA

At Home Care Assistance, we go the extra mile to ensure aging adults are able to enjoy living in the comfort of their own homes. We truly believe seniors deserve to lead happy and healthy lives despite the mental, physical, and/or emotional challenges they may be living with. Seniors have a great deal to offer, and they should be able to enjoy life while navigating the various challenges of aging. The unique perspectives and wisdom older adults share with the rest of the world should be the focus rather than the difficulties they face when managing everyday activities.

Some seniors become more fearful and isolated as they age, which frequently leads to emotional issues such as depression and anxiety. At Des Moines Home Care Assistance, we have dedicated ourselves to changing the way the world ages by assisting our clients at home—the setting they feel most comfortable in. By allowing our clients to age in place, we can successfully help them maintain diginity and independence while bringing peace of mind to the family members who cherish them most.

By using our proprietary Balanced Care Method™ (BCM), we can create an individualized care plan that boosts your elderly loved one’s physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing while enabling him or her to remain independent at home with a higher level of self-esteem and dignity. As your loved one’s care needs change over time, we evaluate those needs and make the necessary alterations to the care plan to ensure he or she only receives the highest level of care. In addition, all of our dedicated caregivers are trained in the Cognitive Therapeutics Method™ (CTM), which has been shown to promote cognitive health and help seniors with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease better manage and slow the progression of their symptoms. Both BCM and CTM can be added to any care plan at no additional charge to our clients.

At Home Care Assistance of Des Moines, IA, we understand you have reached out to us because an aging loved one is having difficulty managing daily activities. Though you may find it challenging to make a decision regarding your loved one’s care, this is a challenge we can easily assist you with. Our trusted in-home caregivers are committed to providing the love and support your family needs and deserves. We perform extensive screening to ensure we only hire the most reliable, highest quality professional caregivers in the home care industry, and we also offer regular and ongoing training to enhance their skills and ensure they help our clients continue to remain safe and comfortable while aging in place. Using a complimentary matching service, we also match seniors with caregivers based on individual care needs and personal preferences.

We look forward to helping you and your loved one enjoy a higher quality of life. Contact us today at (515) 264-2438 to further explore how we can help.
